Hello, I've reinstalled FPSC and I've noticed the dynamic lighting seems to be "dull" and less beautiful than the static lighting, there is a way to fix that thing ?


I know than a FPI command should do the trick but I forgot it's name and how to use it.




Thank you.

That's cause unless you turn on real time shadows for the dynamic stuff, they look bad.

The static lights look good because of lightmaps.

I think you misunderstood me, my dynamic lights are less brighter than static ones.



BTW, thanks for the command.

Wrong.
If you look in the setup.ini there is an option for it.
But you must also edit the settings for the entity you want to cast a shadow.

Does it look good? No. It's terrible and slow.

Setupdescription says:
dynamicshadows=discontinued feature

If you got dynamic shadows working, whether they look good or not, its a first.
Certain mods can do it but its a framerate killer.

It says discontinued but it's still there.
And yeah it MURDERS the framerate.
